Pathways
The Hebden 40 is particularly popular for creating pathways.
Sometimes this can be replacing existing or damaged pathways with a long-lasting, and permeable alternative. Other times it will be used to protect grass from "desire lines" where footfall has started to erode the surface as people take the shortest route, across a park or garden for example. It also prevents grassed areas with a heavy footfall from becoming boggy and churned up.
Compare to conventional methods of building pathways, using the Hebden 40 cellular paving system results in:
- a huge reduction of water run off due to its porous nature
- a far more aesthetically pleasing landscape, as the grass or gravel blends into natural surroundings better than ugly tarmac or block paving.
- Financial savings on material costs as the Hebden 40 system costs much less than traditional alternatives
- Financial savings on installation costs as the light and modular system can be laid in a fraction of the time required for traditional alternatives
- Huge reductions in the carbon footprint of any job as the Hebden 40 is made in Britain from 100% recycled British waste plastic in a factory using electricity from a renewable energy company
